trace of seminal disease or weakness, and from gratitude and good hearts
have volunteered to answer any questions addressed to them by interested
persons, who are, of course, expected to hold such correspondence
confidential. Bear in mind that we use these names only by permission,
which was given us unsought by patrons who paid for our services, and
now tender this privilege more through kindness to sufferers than a
desire to benefit us financially. To save these gentlemen annoyance and

those who have had previous correspondence with us and who will
accompany the request with references.

BASHFULNESS AND FALSE MODESTY.

We are sorry to note in some of our patrons a feeling of shame in taking
this treatment. Such feeling we cannot but regard as absurd, and the
outgrowth of false ideas. If their present condition has been brought
on by evil habits, it is well enough to be ashamed of that fact, but it
is certainly altogether creditable to make use of the first opportunity
to restore or attain a perfectly natural condition and check such
disastrous losses, and in many cases it is absolutely necessary for the
welfare and happiness of themselves and others. A well-known medical

To those who really need this treatment its importance cannot be
overestimated. Each sufferer can answer to himself how very different
life would be if free from his infirmity. Would you not be better
capacitated for business, labor or pleasure? Is not your mind on

consequence of this deficiency, a tendency to misanthrophy, a bitter
feeling that you are the victim of an unkind Providence, or else bowed
by humiliation due to your own ignorance or vices? Does not your very
incapacity keep your mind filled with lewd thoughts, which in a state of
perfect manhood would not exist?

From the confession of hundreds we know how each of you will answer most
or all of these questions.
